The scholarship is derived from an endowment made possible by memorial gifts, royalties, faculty contributions, book sales, etc., will be awarded to a PhD candidate in English studies.
Any graduate student who has completed at least 12 hours of graduate work above the requirements of their previous degree toward an MA or PhD in English or 12 hours of graduate work toward an interdisciplinary PhD degree may apply.
Selection of scholarship winners will be based on the following criteria:
- Academic achievement as evidenced by (a) grade point average in graduate work and (b) publication and research.
- Participation in professional activities.
- Service to the Department (including teaching if applicable) or Community. The Committee may solicit Graduate Faculty recommendations in determining Keeler and Campbell Scholars. It chooses to do so this year and asks that students please include 2-3 such letters of recommendation with their application.
